ORIGINAL: Mirus Well yes I know it wasn't fully explained at first, but then its still not because no relationship can be summarised into one short question. CrappyDom since you've made some direct points, and fair ones, the timeframe of being together wasn't clear as its something is up in the air, however one day a year or one a fortnight isn't where I want to be. We both know that I'm married and that isn't going to change, though perhaps the poly route could provide an answer to that. However, on balance the points being made here by most (and I'll ignore the flamers) fairly well summarise my own doubts about the situation. My primary interest is and always has been that diamond gets the best out of the situation. She does deserve better and I've told her so on many occasions. She is a very special woman and will always have a hold on me, but I do agree, I can't allow her to do it and better a short term pain now with some chance of maintaining our friendship than destroying everything. So thanks to all who have made an input here, it's been good to get your opinions and thoughts. If this is something you both can live with and your wife knows, then I don't really see the problem. Mine always was that I was second best in his life..or third..or fourth..but that comes not only in this "life" but from being with someone that is married in the first place. Maybe being poly is the right answer, but it seems with her unmentionable involved, anything more than a meeting once in a while will not be possible. I don't sit and judge either one of you. Just from the way things are written, I think she does seem a bit confused and very wrapped up emotionally to make a clear cut decision right now. I can't tell what is in her heart though, or what she feels for you. You do seem to have your head on your shoulders in the whole thing. I think often times the Dom gets made out to be the "bastard" of the situation just because of his position. I think that the sub/slave can be ever so much to blame as the one in charge. You said yourself you have tried to get her to move on, yet she keeps clinging to the "idea" of you. I think it's a tough relationship no matter the course it takes. If it ends, she will be hurt and have to continue her search, if you stay together..there will tons of issues that get thrown at you both. If you both are strong enough..and what you have is strong enough to deal with it all... I wish you both much luck in finding a way to enjoy each other. Respectfully, andrea
